Right after your first post on LC the movie American in Paris came on TV and we watched it. It was so good. I hadnt seen it in a long while. We own Father Goose and play it every so often as we love it. Fun post. I think my serendipitous surprise was when I got into an Elevator on the 3rd floor of a medical bulding with my Mom in Newport Beach years ago and there was John Wayne in HUGE glorious live color standing with two other people with him. It certainly stays with you. oh and No camera either to take a pix when he got out. Drats. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

Right out of Art School back in the sixties I worked in the art dept. of KYW_TV 3, in Philadelphia. Our major production was the nationally syndicated "Mike Douglas Show." It was a wonderful learning experience for a young illustrator/designer...BUT I became very jaded when it came to being dazzled by all the many "personalities" I saw backstage. They all put their pants on one leg at a time, just like the rest of us.

I always liked her movies. Maybe because of that beautiful accent in addition to her physical beauty.When you first posted your encounter with her in the Metro - it was the shoes that grabbed my attention!

Spectators of all kinds have always been my passion...I still remember my mother's spectators with their chunky 1050's heels. I own low-heeled sling-backs in navy/gray, black tie ups and brown tie-ups.

I like Leslie Caron very much! Have you watched the Fanny Trilogy? A character in them, Panisse, is for whom Chez Panisse is named! And Alice Waters' daughter is named Fanny! (After Caron's character in the movies).
